Yes. I bought it from this cute little girl who works at DMG.

Wow! Nice acquisition! I recommend you resell it to me at the same price.

Spoiler:

**gsvec** · 08-04-2009 08:22 PM

Niiiice! Probably helped that it didn't have 'signed' in the auction title. Way to go!

**Darkmaniscoming** · 08-04-2009 08:26 PM

Well I shall not celebrate until it is on my shelf....still thinking its too good to be true.

**Brice** · 08-04-2009 08:33 PM

Well, I''l just go ahead and assume the best and say congrats.

**Fsmdr** · 08-04-2009 08:51 PM

I have a Grant 2nd of the Gunslinger coming with this description...

"Book is VG+ condition. No writing, marks, tears or creases. The original price has been cut off in the inside front flap as you can see in the picture. It is a complete copy with the DJ which also has no tears, rips, etc. There is an embossed stamp on the title page that says from the library of RLW, but you can hardly see it."

Now, if we removed the part about the jacket being price clipped and just say the jacket is mint, what should the price have been for me to not have gotten ripped off?

Depends how bad the embossed stamp is. Its hard to say if it actually takes away value or not, but I know myself and many others simply wouldn't look at a copy with the personalized stamp.

With a mint jacket I'd say probably $150- $175.

**jhanic** · 08-05-2009 05:26 AM

With the embossed stamp, I wouldn't pay more than $75, if that much.

**Darkmaniscoming** · 08-05-2009 05:33 AM

Not really following?
How does the jacket become mint?
Eric just sold a very nice complete copy for $200 in about 6 minutes...
Hard to say without pictures...

I have the unique magical ability to repair paper to a pristine state with the power of my mind.

I'm all right then. was $150 shipped. Not a super deal, but OK.

The embossed stamp is vandalism.

**Darkmaniscoming** · 08-05-2009 09:22 AM

Criminal really.
